The simulation work focuses on the integrative numerical modelling of the evolution of microstructures during processing on different scales. Using a suitable combination of microstructural design, process optimization, and mechanical testing, it becomes possible to introduce more efficient process parameters, innovative appli-cations, and new materials. The scientific approach of the institute is to use a combination of different mechanical and physical testing methods with advanced numerical approaches in order to investigate the bulk properties of different iron-based alloys at sub-zero temperatures as well as room and elevated temperatures. The ultimate aim is to understand the mechanisms behind the physical, mechanical, and microstructural properties of steels, to be able to improve their macroscopic behaviour through transformations and variations of the microscopic phases and to design advanced solutions for steel production, processing and application. The research activities within IEHK (Institut für Eisenhüttenkunde) involve the major topics of materials characterization, advanced computer simulation of materials, materials processing, and fracture mechanics.
